Seaward PV:1525 PV Tester
The Seaward PV:1525 PV Tester is designed to meet the increasing demands of high-voltage solar systems. It provides professionals with a compact, portable tool for safety and performance verification in both residential and commercial photovoltaic installations. With support for voltages up to 1500V DC and short circuit currents up to 25A, this tester is ideal for use in commissioning, maintenance, and fault-finding tasks.
Built for efficient workflows, the Seaward PV:1525 PV Tester enables accurate testing of open circuit voltage, short circuit current, insulation resistance and ground continuity. It features an intuitive interface that simplifies usage in the field, even under bright sunlight. Bluetooth pairing with the PV:Mobile App ensures fast data transfer, report creation, and firmware updates.
Performance and Compatibility
The Seaward PV:1525 PV Tester stores up to 1000 test records in its built-in memory and features a high-contrast 3.5-inch display. Its wireless clamp allows safe current measurements, while live input warnings and test inhibition actively protect the user. The tester comes with MC4 and 4mm probes, a battery pack, and an irradiance meter, making it well-suited for various solar environments.
Practical Field Use
With just a 1kg weight, the Seaward PV:1525 PV Tester is easy to carry and quick to deploy. It supports both AC and DC measurements, and the IV-curve functionality in the PV:1525-IV model allows for further system analysis. This tester combines durability, accuracy, and modern connectivity to help engineers work faster and more safely on high-voltage systems.
